The national convention of Republican
clubs was happy thought, and was sue
cessful beyond the expectations or hopes
even of its projectors. 1t was harmonious,
spirited and enthusiastic throughout. 1t
was notable political event. 1t means
thorough organization and hearty work
on the part of the young Republicans of
the land, and eventual triumph for the
principles and the party they support.
The opposition press affect to sneer at it,
of course; but they cannot deny or con
ceal the significance of such meeting
six months in advance of the ordinary
opening of the national canvass.

EXAMININ0 THE CELL.

After awhile Jailer Folz made an
examination of the cell. On the floor
he found the shell of u Illuminating cap
The sheriff said there had undoubtedly
been dynamite in it. The suppositiOn
that the man put the shell in his mouth
and deliberately applied the candle
flame is undoubtedly correct. The ex-
plosion was terrific. 1t startled the ofli-
cials, who thought it was bomb, the
noise was so great. The shell was so
small as to have allowed the smuggling
of it into the jail without trouble.
How the dynamite was smuggled
into the cell is not known, but it is gen
orally believed that there is a traitor
among the death watch, who gave him
the dynamite and the cap. This is the
theory at the sheriffs office.

IT Is amusing to watch that dear little
fellow around the corner waving the
bloody shirt. He can talk about how the
South is kept solid by the shotgun method
almost as well as FORAKER can, which Is
saying great deal. Here is a sample of
how he does it. He quotes sentence or
two from the recent speech Of that grand
old Democrat, ALLEN G.. THURMAN, as fol-
lows:
'lf the Republican leaders want TO put
an end to the Solid South they have the
easiest way in the world to do it, They
can do it in brief enough time / assure
you. All they have to do is TO cease to
create, and To seek to perpetuate, solid
North, and the solid South will dissolve"
After few shakes of the bloody shirt
he says in REPUTATION of Judge THURMAN's
words:
And yet no man knows better than he
that but for the solid South there would
be no possibility of solid North"
To man taking no part in the quarrel
it looks asif he were simply proving Judge
THURNIAN's words to be the gospel truth
of the whole matter, since it is poor rule
that won't work both ways. He simply
proves what Mr.. THURMAN says, that all the
Northern Republican leaders have to do
to dissolve both the solid South and the
solid North is to stop waving the bloody
shirt
